kawonda Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 i have an 09 legacy wagon 2.5 automatic PZEV. The head gasket is gone and since it has 433,000 km, about 270,000 miles, I am thinking about another engine with fewer miles for about the same price as a head gasket replacement. So, the question is; can I just get any other engine for that year, assuming auto trans or will too many manifolds and other parts have to be changed too and make it a very complicated and expensive job ?

kawonda Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 it switched up fine and runs beautifully. Thanks for all the input from such a friendly forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Glad it worked out. What engine did you end up using? Did you have a shop swap it out? If you have further such related questions maybe try the new gen forum, that gets a lot more traffic than the subaru transplants forum.
